It incorporates more recent oak resources mapping data for the County and reflects policy language changes made during the General Plan Biological Policy Review project conducted in 2015. This ORMP incorporates relevant information included in the 2008 Plan, where applicable, and was prepared in coordination with El Dorado County Community Development Agency staff. It also incorporates public input gathered during project-focused hearings and direction given by the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors. All relevant terms and definitions are located in Section 6.0 (Definitions)of this Plan. 1.1 Purpose The purpose of this ORMP is to definemitigation requirements for impacts to oak resources (oak woodlands, individual native oak trees, and Heritage Trees) and to outline the County's strategy for oak woodland conservation. This ORMP functions as the oak resources component of the County's biological resources mitigation program, identified in General Plan Policy 7.4.2.8. This ORMP identifies standards for oak woodland and native oak tree impact determination, mechanisms to mitigate oak woodland and native oak tree impacts, technical report submittal requirements, minimum qualifications for technical report preparation, mitigation monitoring and reporting requirements, and projects or actions that are exempt from mitigation requirements. This ORMP also establishes an in-lieu fee payment option for impacts to oak resources, identifies Priority Conservation Areas (PCAs) where oak woodland conservation efforts may be focused, and outlines minimum standards for identification of oak woodland conservation areas outside the PCAs. Requirements for maintenance and monitoring of conserved oak woodland areas and identification of allowable uses within conserved oak woodland areas are also included in this ORMP. Lastly, the ORMP establishes a plan for voluntary conservation that landowners, the County, and others may use to seek grants and cost­ sharing from state programs for oak woodland conservation in El Dorado County. Loss and fragmentation of wildlife habitat, including oaks and oak woodlands, was identified in the 2004 General Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR) as a significant impact that would result from development under the General Plan. The County identified several mitigation measures which would reduce the severity of these impacts, although not to a less than significant level. These mitigation measures included Policies 7.4.4.4, 7.4.4.5 and 7.4.5 .2, and the related Implementation Measure CO-P. During the General Plan Biological Policy Review project conducted in 2015, these policies were edited and consolidated into one single policy (Policy 7.4.4.4). Implementation Measure CO-P was also modified

  • Sierra Nevada Framework FEIS Chapter 3
    table of contrents Sierra Nevada Forest Plan Amendment – Part 4.6 4.6. Vascular Plants, Bryophytes, and Fungi4.6. Fungi Introduction Part 3.1 of this chapter describes landscape-scale vegetation patterns. Part 3.2 describes the vegetative structure, function, and composition of old forest ecosystems, while Part 3.3 describes hardwood ecosystems and Part 3.4 describes aquatic, riparian, and meadow ecosystems. This part focuses on botanical diversity in the Sierra Nevada, beginning with an overview of botanical resources and then presenting a more detailed analysis of the rarest elements of the flora, the threatened, endangered, and sensitive (TES) plants. The bryophytes (mosses and liverworts), lichens, and fungi of the Sierra have been little studied in comparison to the vascular flora. In the Pacific Northwest, studies of these groups have received increased attention due to the President’s Northwest Forest Plan. New and valuable scientific data is being revealed, some of which may apply to species in the Sierra Nevada. This section presents an overview of the vascular plant flora, followed by summaries of what is generally known about bryophytes, lichens, and fungi in the Sierra Nevada. Environmental Consequences of the alternatives are only analyzed for the Threatened, Endangered, and Sensitive plants, which include vascular plants, several bryophytes, and one species of lichen. 4.6.1. Vascular plants4.6.1. plants The diversity of topography, geology, and elevation in the Sierra Nevada combine to create a remarkably diverse flora (see Section 3.1 for an overview of landscape patterns and vegetation dynamics in the Sierra Nevada). More than half of the approximately 5,000 native vascular plant species in California occur in the Sierra Nevada, despite the fact that the range contains less than 20 percent of the state’s land base (Shevock 1996).

CONIFER FOREST / WOODLAND BT BIG TREE ALLIANCE Big Tree or Giant Sequoia (Sequoiadendron giganteum) as a dominant conifer has been mapped in one small relict grove in the Upper Foothills Metamorphic Belt Subsection at about 4000 ft (1220 m). In this area, its closest tree associates are Ponderosa Pine (Pinus ponderosa) and Black Oak (Quercus kelloggii). It is adjacent to the Mixed Conifer - Pine Alliance. DF PACIFIC DOUGLAS-FIR ALLIANCE Pacific Douglas-Fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) maintains dense stands on north-facing, shaded or moist sites at the same general elevation range as the Douglas-Fir - Pine Alliance, generally below about 6500 ft (1983 m), as mapped in this zone. This Alliance becomes the Douglas-Fir - Pine Alliance when Douglas-Fir mixes with more Ponderosa Pine (Pinus ponderosa) and with the Mixed Conifer-Pine Alliance when additional conifers are present in sufficient quantities. The Douglas-Fir Alliance has been identified as growing in scattered patches in ten subsections, mainly in association with the hardwoods Canyon Live Oak (Quercus chrysolepis), Black Oak (Quercus kelloggii) and less frequently with Tanoak (Lithocarpus densiflorus). DP DOUGLAS-FIR - PINE ALLIANCE Pacific Douglas-Fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) and Ponderosa Pine (Pinus ponderosa) are often found growing together below about 6400 ft (1952 m) elevation in this zone. The Alliance of these two co- dominants has been mapped abundantly and very widely in five subsections and occasionally in nine more.
